Hi! I'm Mary Sarah

Hi, I’m Mary Sarah — a Maryland wedding photographer drawn to estate venues, golden hour light, and celebrations that feel deeply personal. I document timeless, emotion-filled weddings in Frederick, Maryland and throughout the DMV, creating images that feel natural, romantic, and true to each couple. I’m a wife, mama, and Jesus follower who loves dark chocolate and meaningful conversation — and I believe wedding days should feel joyful, calm, and beautifully lived-in. I’m so glad you’re here.

With the months of planning and preparation that go into a wedding, the big day can often be stressful.  I have to say that Justin and Amelia were the most relaxed bride and groom I have ever worked with!  Their Holly Hills Country Club wedding was perfect, right down to the last detail, and the […]

Jen and Drew’s wedding was a truly special event.  It’s been awhile that I’ve both attended and photographed a wedding and it was an honor getting to photograph our friend’s beautiful day.  The weather could not have been more perfect despite early predictions of a tropical storm, and the fun, relaxed atmosphere made their wedding […]
